In your shoes...having to sweat it out...sure. In LSU's shoes, no, that would have been ignorant, even though it was likely LSU would win. You never know with a few turnovers, momentum, etc. Bama had the perfect seat...didn't have to play again and risk it, and was still in the game. It was ridiculous that LSU had beaten bama, was undefeated, yet had to play another game at risk while bama sat at home with one spot locked up, while a loss by LSU may have cost them the shot...Ridiculous. If you can't understand that, I can't help you.


I understand completely...the point is YOU CONTROLLED your own destiny. You did not have to hope for anything to happen for you to get in. All you had to do was win. Thats the only point I've been trying to make. Fair or not you was in the drivers seat!! I would have rather been in your shoes and added an SEC championship to the National Championship. It's you that don't seem to understand what I am saying.

No, what's dumb is pulling for any rival!

!@#$ bama, and !@#$ the SEC!

GEAUX TIGERS!


well you and I have a different big picture view. I'm more like the mafia....why take a chance. What if Michigan runs the table...what if USC runs the table...and LSU....you 100% sure LSU gets in...given the media lovefest for michigan and usc....and the dislike of the SEC winning it every year? Would it be ridiculous to keep the SEC out? Of course....but could it happen? Absolutely....

you made it seem like just "win the damn games" as if bama did that. All I said was that was not the case with bama. If the roles were reversed, and LSU had lost to bama in november.....then run the table....and sitting waiting to see who they play in the NC game....that would not been fair to alabama......You are essentially being rewarded for going undefeated by having to play another high risk game while LSU sat at home with a spot locked up......

the chances of that game affecting LSUs chances of a NC are slim

21-0

Thanks for adding to the LEGEND of Alabama Football by allowing the FIRST EVER SHUT OUT in a BCS Championship.



and then...you get a few intelligent sounding gump fans...but then you have one like this who runs it for you guys, where a statement just COMPLETELY goes over his head and they resort to ..... 21-0. I still don't think he ever got it.

agreed....but then not really....if they are good enough to beat bama, then it could impact LSU more than you know...depending on how well them and USC do this year....may be a slim chance, but why take a chance at all is my point.

I'm pulling for Bama all season. I hope we barely squeak by on wins and Bama slaughters everyone. When the come to Death Valley I won't them to be ranked #1 and LSU in the 4-5 area. At that point in time I hope LSU unleashes hell on the Tide and prison rapes them by 20+ points.

In reality LSU and Bama will run through everyone by 2+ TD's at least. Then on Nov 3 the game will be decided by 1-8 pts.

Well i apologize that my quote was taken out of context. No, Bama didn't take care of business last november which is why we needed help. We didn't have the game locked up while LSU played in the SECCG. Yes...hindsight tells us that but I would have rather played through like you guys did. We were rewarded because we played a very good and tough team extremely close. I think the 2 best teams in the country played for it even if it was a rematch. That's what we claim to want anyway (the 2 best teams). I see your point but I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on some things.

Hell no not pulling for Michigan....partly because my step-dad is a huge Michigan fan, but mainly because I would love for the SEC to just clobber the B1G

that's just it...it has no effect on me. To me, it's just ignorant and has nothing to do with the topic of conversation.

Im pulling for y'all against Michigan. I want Bama to
come to death valley undefeated. I love the battles
Lsu and Bama has had in recent years. Both teams
being undefeated on 11/3 will make for a better game.
